Defunct - Marten
Hey everyone!

It's Marten here, once again with some Defunct news. Since the last update we've published for the game, we've been encountering some bugs in the game, which we haven't able to crush just yet. Now, as a temporary update, we're going to do the following.

From now on, when you start the game, you'll get the option of choosing between playing in the current version (V1.0.2) or the previous version (V1.0.1). Choosing for the previous version will ensure that your experience is optimal as you won't encounter any of the following bugs:
  • An issue where players can't pick up boosts properly in some instances
  • Issues with collectibles, not registering properly
  • Clipping issues, in rare cases players are falling through the map
  • Lighting bugs
  • Issues with audio levels
Please be aware that when you play the game in v1.0.1, you'll start with a fresh save file. If you've played Defunct on V1.0.1. before, you'll continue with the last save game made in that version. This doesn't mean that your previous progress will be wiped, though. Once we're updating the game to v1.0.3, the save game from v1.0.2 will be preserved.

Also, the v1.0.2 was mainly a language update, so just the following languages will be available in v1.0.1
  • English
  • French
  • Spanish
  • Italian
  • German
  • Swedish
  • Dutch
In the meantime, we're working our uhm... gravitize engines off to fix the bugs in the most recent version, so we can finally get some rest ːsteamboredː

If there's any questions, let me know in the comments below!

We've also got a new trailer for this announcement! Check it out here: https://youtu.be/cjjG-YhmiEo
I want to thank you all for playing and enjoying Defunct in the past year. Without you, a console release wouldn't have happened! Thank you all so much! Now is the time to get the word about Defunct out there to the console public, so have some friends who play on console? Spread the word!

On another note, we're also working on getting a whole bunch of languages added to the game, but more on that in a seperate announcement :)

Thank you all!

Hello speedsters!

Thanks for an awesome SGDQ, it was an honor to be part of such a fantastic event.
First a message to all of our new players!
If you're interested in speed-running the game (or just want to hang out with people) you can always join the official Discord channel: https://discordapp.com/invite/0wiFJQrwEAwwZEcI
There you will get help starting out and learn all them strats!


So another minor patch is up and running!
It came to our attention that some players had problems with the camera bugging out. This turned out to be a Field of View(FoV) issue.
Another problem maker were those pesky zip-lines. They sometimes sent you flying in the opposite direction if you hit them in certain ways.
These should both be resolved. Keep letting us know what problems you're having and we'll do our best to resolve them.

Fixes:
Fixed the Camera bug associated with the FoV sliders.
Fixed so that Zip-lines don’t send you flying in the opposite direction.


As for players having issues with the Xbox Elite controller, we're going to do another minor update soon that we think are going to resolve your problems as well.
